The utility model relates to a kind of dislocation-preventing nursing appliances for total hip replacement in the art of joint replacement nursing, including waist belt, the waist belt outside fixed with bracing plate, bracing plate both sides are equipped with connecting plate, two connecting plates bottom are equipped with leg protector, two leg protectors are connected by connecting assembly, for fixing leg, the bracing plate and connecting plate junction are equipped with limiting component, the limiting component includes with the fixed rotating plate of connecting plate one end, the rotating plate outer wall is fixed with rotating block, the bracing plate side close to rotating plate is equipped with two baffle, two baffle are located rotating plate outside, for the leg movement is limited. The utility model is convenient for fixing and controlling leg, avoid patient excessive activity hip joint, to avoid hip joint secondary injury.

A safety broach for use in arthroplasty for hip joints, and a system including the same. The system may further include a segmented or otherwise flexible reamer and an implant. The safety broach includes a hollow interior passage that serves to guide the reamer when the safety broach is in place in the bone. The system may include any number of sizes of safety broaches, segmented reamers, and implants. In any case, such a safety broach may be capable of assisting with arthroplasty for hip joints (or any other joint), while typically providing enhanced safety and reliability of the arthroplasty.

The present application relates to a method for planning placement of an acetabular shell in a total hip arthroplasty (THA) procedure. Functional alignment of a 3D image of a pelvis includes identifying reference points on each 2D image of a weight-bearing pelvis, identifying corresponding reference points on a 3D image of the pelvis in a non-weight-bearing position, constructing a reference on the 2D images based on the reference points on each respective 2D image, constructing a corresponding reference on the 3D image based on the reference points on the 3D image, and aligning the corresponding reference of the 3D image with the references of the 2D images to provide a functionally aligned 3D image to more accurately plan placement of the acetabular shell.

Provided herein is a computer-implemented method including obtaining values for non-modifiable risk factors, each defining an immutable patient characteristic determined to impact a likelihood that a complication results from an arthroplasty procedure. The system obtains first candidate values for modifiable risk factors of the patient defining a mutable characteristic of the patient or the arthroplasty procedure. The first candidate values are determined to minimize the likelihood that the complication results from the arthroplasty procedure. The system obtains second candidate values for the modifiable risk factors of the patient determined to maximize the likelihood that the complication results from the arthroplasty procedure. The system determines a personalized risk interval that represents a range of modifiable risk for the patient with respect to the arthroplasty procedure including determining (i) a lower bound and (ii) an upper bound for the personalized risk interval; and providing an output indicative of the risk interval.
